I'm not a huge fan of indoor shutters, but it's something to consider.

6 weeks downstairs?? This better be an easy delivery!
Over time the insulation compresses, and loses its insulating properties. My old insulation had compressed to just a couple inches. The new insulation is around 8 to 10 inches. You can lay new insulation over the old. I laid the new insulation across the old at a 90 degree angle.



It looks like clouds in the attic.
